Resumen
Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death in the world. Heart failure is a cardiovascular disease in which the heart is unable to pump sufficient blood to fulfill the body?s requirements and can lead to fluid overload. Traditional solutions are not adequate to address the progression of heart failure. Herein, we report a body-mounted wearable sensor to monitor the parameters related to heart failure. These include heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, thoracic impedance, and activity status. The device is compact and wearable and measures the parameters continuously in real time. The device is an Internet of Things (IoT) device connected with a cloud-based database enabling the parameters to be visualized on a mobile application.
